The Danger of Being Bored at Work

Across the road from where I work, there is a Community

Notice Board. I glued these posters up early in the morning

over the course of several days and sat back to watch peoples

reactions from the safety of my window.

The CCTV poster had some people trying to smash the camera

above their heads - of course they were not being monitored

- it was just a Speed Trap camera pointing about 250 feet

from where they were!

The Drunk Bus Driver poster had the police and about 15

blokes from London Transport scraping the poster off the

board + 3 buses that would not move until it was gone! I

promise that I was not responsible for the RMT going on

strike last month!

The Slag Alert Poster worked beyond my wildest dreams.

It had a crowd of about 11 youths all reading it when one

teenager on a bike went fucking nuts!

He started to scream "Who did THIS"! over and over again,

followed by "No one does this to me", took out a knife and

started to attack the poster - stabbing and cutting the paper

to shreds, not noticing that it was pasted onto glass with the

inevitable results of then being showered with shards of wreckage!

I think it took about 3 days for me to stop laughing - was it something I said?

Aaaaaah - happy days!
